<html> <body> <P>Dear Mr. Sullivan</P> <P>Due to recent outbreak in fraud transactions we were forced to stop automatic exchanges and<BR>start performing them manually. Unfortunately that did not help. We are still experiencing<BR>influx of fraudulent exchange requests.</P> <P>Starting from May we are imposing 2 days hold period on all exchanges. We will complete<BR>transaction only after 2 days after we received money from customer.</P> <P>This is our official statement: if your money have been stolen from your account in any of the<BR>payment systems that we are working with can contact us. We will check our records and tell you FREE OF CHARGE if these money were transferred through any of our accounts. All we need to know is transaction number (for security purposes you don't need to provide us with your account number). If we find that these money went to any of our accounts and we still have them, we'll return them back to you for only 2% service charge. You will have to proove us that you are legitimate owner of these funds though. Naturally official request from e-gold for refund is enough evidence for us.</P> <P>If you have any questions don't hesistate ask them on our site<BR><A href="http://www.speed-exchange.com">http://www.speed-exchange.com</A></P> <P>Alex Desantos, CEO<BR>Speed-Exchange & Talk-Gold Corp.<BR>phone: (702) 549-8613<BR>fax: (702) 549-8651<BR>email: <A href="mailto:ad...@ta...">ad...@ta...</A></P> <P>----------------------------------------<BR>Debit cards, E-Gold, Evocash, NetPay exchange on <A href="http://www.speed-exchange.com">http://www.speed-exchange.com</A> <BR>Our forum on <A href="http://www.talkgold.com">http://www.talkgold.com</A> <BR>This is confidential message and is intended only for its primary recipient.

Quite the contrary, here. I read an article in JOOP on classless OOP and was struck dumb. I downloaded the Self papers, read them "cover to cover", then set about implementing the first iteration of the now-named "Selfish" project, Prototype.pm (Perl). I only had about an hour or so of monkeying with a running Self VM and Kansas on an Ultra in between reading the articles and writing Prototype.pm... BTW: as an aside, I've been making good progress on some necessary persistence infrastructure for the next release of selfish.py, which will actually be an interesting release, as opposed to the "proof that code exists" release I made some months ago. -- Joy-Loving * Tripp Lilley * http://stargate.eheart.sg505.net/~tlilley/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "Fiber makes you poop." -- From <http://www.pvponline.com/bts_studio.php3> |

So what did you think of Guido's response? You may have provoked it partly from your ending statement about doing something you're not supposed to. Although, his response would probably have been the same and I can say that at this point I tend to agree with him. If I understand correctly, your proposal goes beyond the getattr/setattr trick to provide interchangeability between these two: obj.foo = 5 obj.foo(5) Is there anything else?

Uh, yeah. I don't know about that last one. :)
And do we really need quintuple underscores? How aobut:
def foo():
def setFoo():
def delFoo():

But for "retrieve" it is impossible, and I strongly recommend against it. In Python bound methods are first-class objects and can be passed around just like function pointers. For example: l = [0,1,2,3] a = l.append a(4) a(5) print l # [0,1,2,3,4,5] Your hack would break this, and I object against calling the resulting language "Python". Instead, you can use __getattr__ to redirect any reference to o.scalar to a method call, so that you can use what you call scalar notation for method implementation. In my eyes, this is better than what you want! (Also note that the Python compiler-sig is really intended for discussions of new ways of compiling Python, not for discussions of the existing Python compiler.) --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/) |

I refer you to our earlier discussion on selfish-devel, but to summarize for others' benefit (or anguish, as the case may be): I have two slots, "scalar" and "method", which are, respectively, a scalar value and a method (bound using the "new" hacks). I want to access those slots according to the conventions established in the Self language, namely without regard to whether they're implemented as simple attributes or as methods. Thus: # retrieve o.scalar o.scalar( ) o.method o.method( ) # set o.scalar = 42 o.scalar( 42 ) o.method = 25 o.method( 25 ) Taking first the case of the "scalar" slot: I want to define two attributes, one a simple value, one a method. When the slot "scalar" is retrieved as a simple attribute (ie: o.scalar), it will magically pop out of __dict__['scalar'] per normal Python getattr rules. On the other hand, when it's retrieved just prior to a CALL_FUNCTION bytecode (or by the PyObject_CallMethod call), it will try magically returning __dict__['__meth_scalar__'], a wrapper which handles "method" semantics for the slot. If that fails, it will try calling __getmethod__, and if that throws an AttributeError, it will fall back to normal semantics. All of this is predicated on the setting of __use_getmethod__ or somesuch in globals. Now, the case of the "method" slot: When called as a simple scalar (ie: o.method), this would be trapped by either __getattr__, or by the new __attr_method__ hook proposed in PEP 213. Either of those would simply execute the method in-place, returning the resolved value. When called as a method, the contents of __dict__['__meth_method__'] would be returned, which happen to be a normal, old-fashioned method object, which is called as normal. So, basically, it allows me to do away with the incredibly ugly slot-wrapper crap I'm using right now to implement attr/method opacity. For certain general cases, it's quite efficient. For other general cases, the inefficiency is masked by other inefficiencies that aren't avoidable. At least as far as I know right now :) -- Joy-Loving * Tripp Lilley * http://stargate.eheart.sg505.net/~tlilley/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "There were other lonely singers / in a world turned deaf and blind Who were crucified for what they tried to show.

You have lost me. Why do you want to hack on "obj.foo()"? Tripp Lilley <tr...@pe...> wrote: > This isn't exactly a compilation issue, but it's somewhat related, and I didn't see an obvious "ugly hacks" or "interpreter devloper" list mentioned anywhere out front. I have modified my interpreter so that, in the LOAD_ATTR case statement, it peeks ahead in the code and looks to see if the next opcode is "CALL_FUNCTION". If so, I'd like to use slightly different getattr steps to resolve the attribute reference. For resolution of the call o.XXX( ), I'd like my getattr to use these steps: - if an attribute called __meth_XXX__ exists, return it. - if an attribute called __getmethod__ exists, call it to allow it to resolve the attribute. If it returns "None", continue looking for the attribute. - continue with "normal" attribute resolution semantics Basically, the idea is to be able to trap attribute accesses that are going to be immediately used as method invocations. Why? http://sourceforge.net/projects/selfish/ But that's another story. At this point, I can, more or less, determine the right "context" in which I want to apply these semantics. With the hack to eval_code2, I trap bytecode method invocations, and with a modification to PyObject_CallMethod, I trap C API method invocations. What I now need to do is pass that contextual "hint" down into the various flavours of getattr. What's the most "friendly" way of approaching that? Since I can't use default arguments, adding another parameter to getattrofunc would mean I'd have to modify all of the modules to pass the parameter. Yuck. I can't use a global variable because of thread safety issues (and because that's ugly and I refuse :) ). Is there some thread state to which I have access from within a getattrofunc? One disgusting possibility that occured to me was to modify the object being searched, temporarily replacing its tp_getattro member with a wrapper that would prepend the method semantics. I've temporarily shot that one down because it means I have to investigate what type of object it is, so I can apply the correct prepend (ie: a module might or might not support the "method" mechanisms I'm proposing). However, I'm willing to revisit that... The other alternative is that I'm doing Something I Shouldn't Be Doing(tm). -- Tripp Lilley * tr...@pe... * http://stargate.eheart.sg505.net/~tlilley/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- "This whole textual substitution thing is pissing me off.
